The writings of John Newton
Author: John NewtonCategoryDescriptionContentAuthorDetails"Newton's letters, in which he addresses a wide variety of pastoral issues, are pure gold. Newton was able to apply great theological doctrines of faith to the circumstances of the lives of friends, parishioners, and even strangers who wrote to him with a request to give advice. In his letters, he is often harsh, but love always sounds in them.
Newton's writings influenced both my pastoral work and my preaching. Newton not only called people to a holy life, but also analyzed their motivations in detail and showed what prevents them from obeying God. For more than a decade, I have been constantly reading and re-reading these writings, and they have taught me to better understand the hidden motives of human actions, so that, preaching and applying the high doctrines of grace, not only appeal to the will, but also achieve a change of heart" - Timothy Keller
